@farzyness More importantly, how exactly did they differ? Offsetting differences or single line item?

So my CPA just finished up my taxes for 2025 and I gave all the same documents to Claude Code Opus 4.6 1M thinking: MAX and...
Claude Code came within $600 (under).
I think CPAs are super cooked you guys.
Farzad 🇺🇸 🇮🇷@farzyness
Alright so my CPA just finished up my taxes for 2025. I'm gonna give all the same files/documents to Claude Code Opus 4.6 1M thinking: MAX and see if it comes up with the same amount. Reporting back shortly.

@balbonits @Teslarati Extra capacity always comes with extra weight
English
@SlingerRyan @Teslarati if the understanding here is adding battery. But, what if it's adding capacity for the same weight? That's my understanding of what the OP meant.
English
Would you rather have:
Faster Charging ⚡️ 🔌
OR
Longer Range 🔋 🚗
TESLARATI@Teslarati
I didn’t think this would stimulate as much conversation as it did. Most people are okay with waiting 10-15 minutes for 10-20% charge because it gives them a chance to grab food, use the bathroom, etc. Does Supercharging need to be as fast as pumping gas?

@SullyAugustine @johnarnold Lately this has been my theory as well.

Read up on the Curley Effect. First and foremosts, politics is about accumulating and keeping power. Driving out potential opponents and thus shaping a better controlled electorate is far more important to the typical politician than economic growth.
A political elite can, like an aristocracy, feed quite well on pennies from enough serfs.
English
There is a group of states actively competing to attract businesses and high earners, and another group adopting policies that drive them away. I don't see how this doesn't end up as a disaster in the long-term for the latter.

Just got home from my third road trip to and from Los Angeles in a month. The latest full self driving is honestly better than a human driving. 5500 miles this computer has driven me around since 14.2 launched. How are my stats Tesla people? I showed you mine now show me yours.

Washington (via the Mid-C/Northwest hub on ICE) has the lowest wholesale electricity rates for 2026. Abundant hydro keeps prices well below the US average of ~$51/MWh forecasted by EIA—typically the cheapest major hub vs. ERCOT North, PJM West, or ISO-NE.
(Exact 2026 calendar futures vary daily but Mid-C leads historically & in forward curves.)

One year ago today, I took delivery of my Launch Series Model Y at Giga Texas.
Best car I've ever owned. It can drive itself anywhere I need to go, is constantly improving, I never need to do any oil changes (I always hated those), and costs me just $18 to fully charge.
English
@SawyerMerritt @greggertruck @grok which state has the lowest wholesale electricity rates for 2026 by Intercontinental Exhange rates?
English
@farzyness It will climb over time, there is confirmation bias while you still are making the payments
English
Surprised it's that low.

@AutismCapital Reminds me of many episodes of the Simpsons when a dissenting voice would chime in with “Will someone please think of the children!”
English
And before/if this hits liberal Twitter, obviously protecting children is important and necessary, but they’re using it as a moral cover for control, which works as an excuse because of that very reason.
English
Sounds good on the surface right? But “to protect our children,” is a magic incantation that allows them to have moral cover for their real objective which is total and complete control of the information flow of the internet and censorship of any voices they deem problematic.

NEW - Macron urges India to join European countries on a social media ban for teenagers and states "platforms, governments and regulators" should work together to "make the Internet and social media a safe space... Protecting our children is not regulation, It is civilization."

@chamath Generally rational people tax what they seek to reduce. The architects of this wanted fewer billionaires in their state.
English
Well, it turns out the billionaire tax proposal that is upending the California budget was never about healthcare, it was about retribution and envy…
Blake Dodge@dodgeblake
I read their books, essays, and proposals — and listened to their mid-2010s YouTube talks — to create what is essentially the first ideological profile of the people behind California’s wealth tax. The men in question are very explicitly using wealth taxes in what they describe as a power struggle against oligarchic control over the media and “prevailing ideology.” They were particularly spooked by (what they describe as) Elon leveraging X to get Trump elected. This is not about plugging a “budget hole” for Medicaid, the stated justification of the proposal. They may very well want the $100 billion for healthcare, but they want other things, too.

@stevenmarkryan Base 10 is overrated, revisit base 12 and deep dive for the win

Trump’s final act as president should be to move to US to the metric measurement system.

@SawyerMerritt If you use Tesla insurance and you total the car with FSD, does the replacement come with FSD?
English
FYI: If you buy a new Model S, Model X or Cyberbeast with the Luxe Package, Tesla says FSD (Supervised) will be taken into account when evaluating the trade-in value for any Cyberbeast or model year 2026 Model S and Model X vehicles.
English
@Teslarati I believe Lars already addressed this and said Model 3 rear end cannot accommodate a tri motor set up
English
@whatsinside I agree, Model YL plus Cybertruck cover the potential X buyers and Model 3P plus Roadster covers the S buyers
English
Wow. S and X have been such great cars. Rip.
BUT…if we can keep Cybertruck and come out with the Roadster asap I’ll be happy. I don’t think I need an Optimus robot anytime soon.

@johnarnold Price level is high, inflation is low. Most of congress has no idea the difference
English
Two things I hear in every conversation with a member of Congress:
1) "Inflation is still too high and a real concern"
2) "Here are my ideas for new tax cuts and/or spending programs"
English
@johnarnold Don’t forget Ireland, which made it PIIGS. GIPSI was also another variant.
English
I always feel old when I have to explain what the PIGS were to people who weren't active in the financial markets during the GFC.

@uriahz @johnarnold Model Y is the best selling car in the world and features PIN to drive
English
@johnarnold Ain't nobody buying a car with a pin code but yeah the rest is obvious and annoying that it's not standard equipment. If a hacker can remotely disable my car I should absolutely be able to.
English
Motor vehicle theft is the easiest property crime to address through tech and yet it's the one that we've gone backwards on over the past 15 years. The tools exist today to essentially end car theft if adopted: PIN to drive, remote disable, GPS tracking, cameras, encrypted keys.
English
@johnarnold Politics aside, net migration is probably the biggest driver of housing affordability
English
It’s good that affordability is top of mind for politicians because it matters most to voters. But the problem has been decades in the making, and they are trying to solve it within a four-year political cycle. Hence, many of the ideas are either ineffective or counterproductive.
